Yes, but when Bryz is saying it, it's throwing them under the bus. The goalie has little confidence in the D and vice versa. They need to go to Banff and do some Hitchcockesque trusting exercises.

Word.

Yes, but he was a few feet ahead of both Rangers you are mentioning. It didn't look to me that he was playing a potential 2 on 1.
- Flyer_Nation71

He saw that Couturier was back checking and was responsible for Del Zotto. MAB was concerned with not letting a pass get through to the far side, which was his man. Could he have spun around and faced both Rangers like a true 2 on 1, maybe. But he was also in good position to clear away any rebound of which there should have been one on that play imo.

Im watching one of the best coaching staffs in the NFL. Coach Reid is going to do everything in his power to take this team to the championship. The owner believes in him, thats why he still has a head coaching job in Philly.
- stveshdy

best coaching staff that went 8-8 after goin All In... no i'm sorry this was the final straw with me.... injuries BA tell that to last years packers who were killed by injuries and won it all... and if he was doin everything in his power he would have drafted a LB or he would have drafted a really good saftey a couple of years ago.. instead of Graham... how can u say Juan is a good DC.... the four wins at the end of the season are a joke and if u think that they were legit then im sorry cause it was fools gold 4-8 with that team is unacceptable

Love some good +/- talk.
- bradleyc4

can't wait for the batting average discourse.

Speaking of +/- that wonderfully, improving, consistent Carle is a - player on the season. He's right in the Norris discussion without question.
- PLindbergh31

Yep, because that is exactly what he meant when he said Carle was having a good season. Bang on!

Dude, Howie Roseman has it covered. They'll draft the best players that are available.

After the game, the fans at Madison Square Garden cockily chanted "you can't beat us" at the Flyers. That's a bit premature, considering the fact that the Rangers haven't gotten through two rounds of playoffs since 1997

haha i hadn't even noticed that bill mentioned this in the blog...

this is exactly what i was angrily grumbling at the a-holes around me. the people behind me actually shut up

Just hit them with the old 1940 chant.... oh (frank) that doesn't work anymore.
- PLindbergh31

let them chant it now in the regular season, playoffs are a whole different story... same crowd who started can u hear us 2 years to Bruce douchbreau up 3-0 only to blow it and lose in overtime....

there is no debate, imo


but Eli is a very good qb.. and has more rings.. cant deny that
- Crimsoninja

They were talking this morning about how Peyton struggled in the 4th Q in big games. Always had trouble getting over Tennessee in college. The SB against the Saints too, although they said the pick in that game could also be pinned on Reggie Wayne. For Eli to have come through as many meaningful games as he did at the end of this season says a lot to me. I also think he will come close to Peyton stats wise except for maybe TD's.

Juans schemes are very difficult and he was asking too much from his players early on. He scaled it back some and thats why the defense was much better at the end of the season. The Eagles had a great draft last year (Watkins, Jarett, and Matthews) all players who contributed to the team. Losing Vick for four games hurt this team and adjusting to a new system takes time. The Eagles are primed for an outstanding year. Graham will be back next year causing havic on the field. Dont let this last year fool you, deep down inside you know this team is set up for a title run.

- jimbro83

Is that someone from the bench pulling his hair? If it is, suspension city.

- jimbro83

it's funny, to me, that people are all upset over Sestito pulling hair in a fight...they were trying to punch each other in the face! No one has a problem with that? The older I get the silly hockey fights seem.

- jimbro83

Embarrassing and shameful.

- jimbro83

At the very least if I'm trying to take any positive from yesterday's game it that Sestito should get the nod over Shelly from now on. If he can keep himself from getting thrown out of games he's a great guy to have on the 4th line in my opinion. Guy hits everything.

They probably will be chanting that in the playoffs also. Their a better team then the Flyers.

Yep, because that is exactly what he meant when he said Carle was having a good season. Bang on!


- MBFlyerfan

How dare anyone praise a player not having a Norris caliber season.

Embarrassing and shameful.
- rockychocbill

It looks like someone from the bench is pulling Prust's hair. Is that Sestito's hand? I can't tell.

tell me your being sarcastic.. please Watkins i will give ya but by all means Jarrett couldnt even get dressed for 4 games and Casey Matthews contributed in what way

Sestitos hand. The player behind him has a black glove on.

Its the Tito's train timmo his hand on his stick look closely u can see it

at least it was accurate. not something dumb like "crosby sux".
- bradleyc4

while accurate, the Flyers also couldn't beat Montreal a few seasons ago until the playoffs. time will tell.

It's Sestito's hand, against black hair, black glove, and black pants. It could be just a follow through from a punch to the chops that has Prust's face in agony. I haven't read anything about hair pulling.

The Eagles system is complexed and usually takes time for rookies to step in and play right away.
